this does happen. inspite of all the standards we have !!!
can u try this
<a href="blah.php">blah</a> would be a regular link.
<?
$md = md5(time());
echo "<a href=blah.php?ref=$md>blah</a>";
?>
now what this would do is force a refresh every time as the value of $md keeps on changing, and the browser will think it has not fetched the page from the server. Hence in turn it will go to the server and fetch it again.
